ComputerandMan
（1）Itisbelievedthatthecomputercandoalmosteverything.Atthetimethecomputerwas
invented, scientists, carried away by its calculating speed, felt that they had created a miracle. It
was gradually used not only in mathematics, physics, chemistry and astronomy, but in places like
the library, hospital and military army to replace the work of man. For the work of man. For this
reason,thecomputerwasentiled“ElectronicBrain”intermsofappreciation。
Can man be controlled by computers? The answer is negative. Although a computer works
much faster and accurately than man , a fact is undeniable; it is designed, manufactured and
programmed by man, and therefore by human beings. Of course, science fictions have made up
many fascinating stories about a computer, or rather robot, who conquers man and the earth,
even the whole universe; however, they are only unrealistic imaginatio. A horse helps man a lot

（2）Itisbelievedthatthecomputerisbringingtheworldintoabrandnewera.Atthetimethe
computer was invented, scientists, marveling at its calculating speed, felt that they had created a
miracle.Nowadays,thefunctionofthecomputerisnolongerconfinedtocalculation;itpermeates
people’sdailylivesandhasbecomeaninseparablepartofhumansociety.
People become so heavily dependent on computers that it is hard to imagine the life without
computers. Therefore, some people are worried that “The real danger is not that the computer
willthinklikeman,butmanwillthinklikethecomputer.”
Their concern does make sense. Indeed, some people spend such a long time working on
computers that they have few interactions with people in real life. According to a research, too
many hours in front of a computer may lead to a poker face and interpersonal isolation. This fact
should arouse our attention, because unlike computers, human beings are social creatures that
needemotionalconnectionswithothers.
Yet, it is also unnecessary for us to be overwhelmed by the negative impacts of computers.
After all, we humans are intelligent and will be able to figure out better ways to make
improvements.

Q:Whatdoesthewomanmean?
答案：Shecanlendthemanasleepingbag.

露营装备”，由此可知，campinggear 包括 sleepingbag，即女士能借给男士一个睡袋，此题的
设置稍微绕了个小弯，为考生解题设置了一定难度。gocamping：去野餐，去露营；sleepingbag：
睡袋。

【点评】
本篇长对话是关于一名怀孕的员工就工作中的辐射伤害向工会投诉。对话一开篇女士先
抱怨自己工作的医院无人听她申诉有关机器已过时，会造成身体伤害的问题，因为医院想要
降低成本。然后她提到自己有向主管提出转调部门的要求，然而遭到拒绝。主管还告诫她，
医院宁愿换掉她，让他人工作，也不会更换机器。于是工会代表告诉她转调部门确实可能不
会成功。同时要想利用目前的法案来解决这一问题，也会很难实现。最后指出，除非她真正
丢失工作，工会才能拿起法律武器帮她讨薪。
本对话考生虽然对辐射造成身体伤害的话题并不陌生，但整个对话中部分单词可能还是
会造成不少听力困扰。比如：healthhazard（健康伤害）中的 hazard；X-rayequipment（X 光
仪器）中的X-ray和两大法案的名称虽不难，但也容易混淆大家的视听，而误抓重点。
ConversationTwo
W:Mr.Green,isitfairtosaythatnegotiationisanart?
M: Well, I think it’s both an art and science. You can prepare for a negotiation quite
scientifically, but the execution of the negotiation has quite a lot to do with one’s artistic quality.
The scientific part of a negotiation is in determining your strategy. What do you want out of it?
What can you give? Then of course there are tactics. How do you go about it? Do you take an
opening position in a negotiation which differs from the eventual goal you are heading for? And
thenofcoursetherearethebehavioralaspects.
W:Whatdoyoumeanbythebehavioralaspects?
M: Well, that’s I think where the art comes in. In your behavior, you can either be an actor.
You can pretend that you don’t like things which you are actually quite pleased about. Or you can
pretend to like things which you are quite happy to do without. Or you can be the honest type
negotiator who’s known to his partners in negotiation and always plays everything straight. But
the artistic part of negotiation I think has to do with responding immediately to cues one gets in
the process of negotiation. These can be verbal cues or even body language. This is where the
artisticqualitycomesin.

【点评】
本长对话主要是关于谈判的艺术性和科学性。谈判的科学性部分主要体现在谈判策略，
而谈判的艺术性则体现在表现上。这里可以归为两类，一是“演技派”，二是“诚实派”。另外，
谈判的艺术性还与对谈判过程中获得的口头暗示、肢体语言进行及时反应有关。最后男士指
出根据不同场合，无论是“诚实派”，或是“演技派”谈判者都能起到各自的效果。
本对话中的关键词有：negotiation：谈判；strategy：策略；behavioral：行为的。

Passage1
A scientific team is studying the thinking ability of eleven and half month old children. The
test is a simple one. The baby watches a sort of show on a small stage. In Act One of the show, a
yellow cube is lifted from a blue box, and moved across the stage. Then it is returned to the box.
This is repeated 6 times. Act Two is similar except that the yellow cube is smaller. Baby boys do
not react at all to the difference and the size of the cube. But girls immediately become excited.
The scientists interpret the girls’ excitement as meaning they are trying to understand what they
have just seen. They are wondering why Act Two is odd and how it differs from Act One. In other
words, the little girls are reasoning. This experiment certainly does not definitely prove that girls
starttoreasonbeforeboys,butitprovidesacluethatscientistswouldliketostudymorecarefully.
Already it is known that bones, muscles and nerves develop faster in baby girls. Perhaps it is early
nerve development that makes some infant girls show more intelligence than infant boys.
Scientists have also found that nature seems to give another boost to girls. Baby girls usually talk
at an earlier age than boys do.Scientists think that there is a physical reason for this. They believe
that the nerve endings inthe leftside of the brain develop faster in girls than in boys, and it isthis
side of the brain that strongly influences an individual’s ability to use language and remember
things.

Passage2
Asuperattendantofthecitymunicipalbuilding,DilliaAdorno,wasresponsibleforpresenting
its new security plan to the public. City employees, citizens and reporters gathered in the hall to
hear her describe the plan. After outlining the main points she would cover, she assured the
audience that she would be happy to answer questions at the end of her presentation. Dillia
realized the plan was expensive and potentially controversial. So she was not surprised to see a
number of hands go up as soon as she finished speaking. An employ asked, “Would the new
system create long lines to get into the building like the line in the airport security checks?” Dillia
had anticipated this question and had an answer ready. After repeating the question, she
explained that the sufficient number of security guards would be working at peak hours to speed
things along. The next question was more confrontational.”Where was the money come from to
7/15淘宝店铺：行知小课堂
pay for all of this?”The journalists who ask the question seem hostile. But Dillia was careful not to
adopt the defensive tone. She stated that the money would come from the city’s general budget.
“I know these are tide times”, she added, “But everyone agrees on the importance of safe
guarding our employees and members of the public who come into the building.” Near the end of
the 25 minutes she has said, Dillia said she would take two more questions. When those were
finished, she concluded the session with a brief restatement of how the new system will improve
securityandpeaceofmindinthemunicipalbuilding.

【点评】
本文描写一位政府官员介绍了一项新的安保计划，并回答了在场人员的提问，类似于一
场新闻发布会。计划成本较高，而且可能颇具争议。本文详细阐述了两个提问。第一个问题
是Dillia 预见到的，但第二个记者的提问是有对抗性的，即使confrontational 这个词我们听不
懂也没关系，可以从下文的其他词汇中推断，如 hostile 有敌意的，而针对这个问题，Dillia
让自己尽可能不采取defensive 的态度，既然要采取防卫的态度，那记者的提问一定是在政府
的对立面的，因此从defensive 一词也可以判断出记者的态度。

本文描写了Andrea一家在经历失业时依然乐观向上的积极状态。这从文章的首句Despite
unemployment and the lost of her home, Andrea Clark considers herself a blessed and happy
woman.和最后一段 butsheremainsunfailinglyoptimistic.都能得到印证。Andrea的丈夫是内华
达的矿工，去年失业，为了维持生计，他们先是和大儿子一家住在一起，后来又搬家到犹他
州，她的丈夫还在继续找工作。但是经济衰退，并没有让Andrea 消极，她觉得自己和家人的
关系更紧密了并且相信自己能够度过难关。

Mountain climbing is becoming a popular sport, but it is also a potentially dangerous one.
People canfall.Theymayalsobecomeill.One ofthe mostcommondangersto climbersisaltitude
sickness, which can affect even very experienced climbers. Altitude sickness usually begins when a
climber goes above 8,000 to 9,000 feet. The higher one climbs, the less oxygen there is in the air.
When people don’t get enough oxygen, they often begin to gasp for air. They may also feel dizzy
and light-headed. Besides these symptoms of altitude sickness, others such as headache and
fatigue may also occur. At heights of over 18,000 feet, people may be climbing in a constant daze.
Their state of mind can have adverse affect on their judgment. A few precautions can help most
climbersavoidaltitudesickness.Thefirstisnottogotoohigh,toofast.Ifyouclimbto10,000feet,
stay at that height for a day or two. Your body needs to get used to a high altitude before you
climb to a even higher one. Or if you do climb higher sooner, come back down to a lower height
when you sleep. Also, drink plenty of liquids and avoid tobacco and alcohol. When you reach your
top height, do like activities rather than sleep too much. You breathe less when you sleep, so you
get less oxygen. The most important warning is this: if you have severe symptoms, then don’t go

A) 【精析】推理判断题。定位段提到，如果要说我们能从20 世纪30 年代的世界经济危机中
领悟到什么的话，那就是在人们纷纷失业时，政府不能漠然视之。很多考生会因此误选 B)“政
府应给予失业人员补贴”。需要注意的是，定位段中的 as 引导的从句使用的是现在进行时，
由此推知，并不是要给予已经失业的人员补贴，而是在面对失业这种情况时，政府应该有所
作为。由此再定位到第四段…those who believe there is a real role for governments in first
revivingoureconomies,andthensettingtherightrulesforfuturesuccess，该段提到，有些人认
为政府真正该做的事情，一是振兴经济，二是为未来的成功制定合适的规章制度。作者列举

Ⅴ【完形填空】
【答案】
62.A) 【精析】形容词辨析题。grays…faster 对比的是衰老的速度，一般认为总统的衰老
速度比通常情况下的衰老速度更快。usual“通常的，惯常的”符合题意。regular“定期的，定时
的”，强调规律性； routine“常规的，例行的”；universal“共同的；通用的”。
63.C) 【精析】形容词辨析题。本句意为“事实上，大部分美国总统比他们同时代的＿人寿命
要长。“typical“一贯的，平常的”,typicalmen指当
时的大多数的人，在这里表示总统比当时一般人的寿命长，故typical 为答案。similar“相似的”；
popular“受欢迎的”；standard“标准的”。

64.B) 【精析】固定搭配题。That'snottosay 为固定搭配，意为“并不是说”，故，say为答案。
tell“告诉”； utter“说出；发出”,exclaim“呼喊”。
65.C) 【精析】副词辨析题。该空在but引导的分句中，这里使用了sodo/does…的倒装句式，
意为“……也如此”。根据句意“这并不是说长期压力对人的寿命没有影响，但是社会地位高却对
人的寿命有影响”,so 符合题意。else“其他”；rather“相反”；thus“因此”。
66.D) 【精析】动词短语辨析题。空格处需要填人一个能与介词 to搭配的动词。根据句意，
该研究成果是对有关身处高位和更好的健康状况之间联系的大量研究的补充。因此 add符合
题意。tend(to)“往往会，倾向”；pOiflt(to)“指向”； devote(to)“献身，致力于”。
67.A) 【精析】介词短语辨析题。空格之后的句子列举了两种情况，即奥斯卡奖得主和诺贝尔
奖得主的寿命状况，这明显是在举例，因此 forinstance“例如”符合题意。bycontrast“相比之
下”；inessence“本质上”；aboveall“首先”。
68.B) 【精析】动词辨析题。空格所在句中包含一个比较级结构，意为“奥斯卡奖得主比那些
仅仅＿的人寿命长”。根据常识，先有几位演员获得奥斯卡奖提名，然后再在提名者中确定真
正的得主，故 nominated“提名，推荐”符合题意。formulated“制定，规划”；engaged“参加，
参与”；specified“详述，具体说明”。
69.D) 【精析】动词辨析题。空格处需填入动词作句子的谓语。主语是新的研究，宾语是关
于以往总统们的一些信息：出生日期、就职时间和死亡时间。由此可知，此处是在“分析”该
研究的内容，因此答案应为 analyzed“分析”。signified“代表，象征”；regulated“管制”；testified“证
实”。
70.B) 【精析】形容词辨析题。此处谈论的是多位总统的寿命，该句指出他们的＿寿命本应该
是 68 岁，此处是用平均寿命作比较；而下一段第一句指出“研究发现，这些总统平均活到了
73 岁”, 这一句中的 average 也表示此处应该选择 average,ultimate“最终的”，一般不能用来修
饰年龄，但可以用于 one'sultimategoal；appropriate“适当的”；maximum“最高／大限量的”，
可以用于themaximumage，表示年龄上的限制，但是不能用在这里，可以排除。
71.A) 【精析】连词辨析题。该空格所在句的句意为：根据大众观点来看，＿他们在＿时候的
衰老速度是普通人的两倍的话，总统们的平均寿命应该是68岁。而下一段指出总统们的平均
寿命是73 岁，所以空格所在的句子为假设句。 if“如果”符合题意。lest“以免，唯恐”；for“因
为”；until“直到”
72.C) 【精析】介词词组辨析题。根据句意，按照大众的观点来看，他们本应该在＿期间加倍
衰老。大众观点认为压力大让总统老得更快，自然是在任期内压力大，故答案为office,inoffice
为固定搭配，意为“在职，当权”。duty常与on搭配，onduty意为“值班”；inplace“在适当的
位置”；inforce“已生效；大量”。
73.A) 【精析】副词辨析题。该句指出，总统们实际上平均活到了 73岁，而不是上文提到的
根据大众观点判断出的 68 岁，含有否定转折的意思，故答案为 Instead,Therefore“因此”，表
结果；Hence“因此；自此以后”，表结果和时间；Meanwhile“同时”。
74.B) 【精析】动词辨析题。根据句意，自然死亡的 34 位总统中有 23 位活得比＿的要长。
上文提到，根据大众观点判断出的总统的平均寿命应该是 68 岁,即人们对总统的寿命作出了
预期，故答案为 expected,意为“预期”。suspected“怀疑”；identified“识别，认出”；confirmed“证
实，证明”。
13/15淘宝店铺：行知小课堂
75.A) 【精析】动词辨析题。根据句意，一些总统＿格外长。全文都在讨论寿命，自然是 “活
得”格外长，故答案为 survived，意为“活下来，存活”。covered“覆盖”；lasted“持续”；extended“延
长”。
76.D) 【精析】副词辨析题。根据句意，所有＿还在世的总统已经超过了他们的＿寿命。既
然还在世，那么肯定是“目前”还在世，故答案为 currently,persistently“持久地”；virtually“实际
上”；formally“正式地”。
77.D) 【精析】固定搭配题。根据句意，目前还在世的总统已经超过了他们的预期寿命，life
expectancy为固定搭配，意为“预期寿命”。ceiling“最高限度”；extent“程度”；boundary“界限”。
78.C) 【精析】固定搭配。atthetopof“在……顶端；在首位”为固定搭配，总统为一国首脑，
自然是处于权力等级的顶点，故答案为 at。above 和over 都有“（表示位置）在……正上方；
（表示比较）优于，胜于；（表示等级）在……之上，高于”的意思，但用在这里都不符合题
意及语法结构；by“(表示位置）在……近旁；（表示时间）不迟于，在……时候；(表示方式）
通过，采取”。
79.B) 【精析】名词辨析题。根据句意，总统们也许是由于享有财富、教育和当时最好的医疗
照顾而寿命更长。Access“(使用某物的）机会、权利”，符合句意。Appeal“吸引力”；Entrance“人
口”； Channel“渠道”。
80.C) 【精析】连词辨析题。根据句意，享有财富、教育和当时最好的医疗照顾似乎是显而易
见的因素，＿似乎是治疗实际要了加菲尔德总统的命。空格前后两句为让步转折关系，故答
案为although“尽管”。unless“除非”，表条件；because 表原因；since 表原因和时间。
81.D) 【精析】名词辨析题。根据文中给出的中文提示，没有消毒而处理枪伤，自然是引起
感染而丧命，故答案为infection,syndrome“综合征”；diagnosis“诊断”；prescription“处方”。
Ⅵ【翻译】
82.haveturnedthewastelandintofertilefarmland
【考点】①现在完成时②常用短语③常用表达
【精析】①括号里的汉语中明确出现的“已经”以及题 干中的“经过几年的努力”表明此处应该
用现在完成时；②“把……变成……”通常使用 turn…into…的结构表示；③“荒地”可表达为
wasteland；“肥沃的农田”可译为rich/fertilefarmland。
83.Iwouldhavehardlyrecognizedher
【考点】①虚拟语气 ②固定用法
【精析】Dif 引导的表过去的虚拟语气从句，主句用 would/could/should(not)havedone 的形
式，根据句意选择wouldhavedone的形式；②如果hardly
提前，那么句子应该用倒装，即改为 hardlywouldIhaverecognizedher，但是此处由于 if 条件
句在前，因此不建议使用倒装的形式。
84.convincedthejudgeofourinnocence/convincedthejudgethatwewereinnocent
【考点】固定用法
14/15淘宝店铺：行知小课堂
【精析】convince 通常有两种用法：convincesb.ofsth．和“convincesb.+that 从句”。第一种
用法中 “清白”用名词形式innocence，第二种用法中使用形容词 innocent；根据句意，主句的
动词convince应使用一般过去式，如果带有宾语从句，从句也应使用一般过去时。
85.Wecanassureyouthat/Youcanbeassuredthat/Youcancountonusthat
【考点】①常用表达②被动结构
【精析】Dassuresb．为“向某人保证”之意，因此可以用来表示“使某人放心”，题干英文指出“我
们将会……”，所以“使你放心”这一动作的发出者应该是“我们”，故答案为 We canassureyou
that；②当英语中不用提及动作发出者时，经常使用被动结构，因此答案也可以为 Youcanbe
assuredthat；③ countonsb．意为“指望／依靠某人”，也可以用来表示“使某人放心”，故答
案也可以为 Youcan countonusthat；题干英文部分为宾语从句，因此连接主句的关系词用
that，亦可省略。
86.itisinadvisable/unwisetoattempttoconquerit
【考点】①it 引导的形式主语结构 ②常用表达
【精析】Dinadvisable 意为“不可取的，不明智的”，强调不建议做某事，unwise 意为“愚蠢的，
不明智的”，由于没有上下文，两者都可以用；②trytodo也有“试着做”之意，但没有attempt
todo的用法正式，且 attempt常常包含冒险的意思，用在这里更恰当。
